Maple Salmon with Baked Vegetables

Serves 2

This one is Coach Dani's personal favourite. She's been making it for years and is always a crowd pleaser.

Ingredients

500g Atlantic salmon - skin off

1tbs olive oil

1tbs maple syrup

½ tsp paprika

2tbs chopped parsley

50g finely chopped walnuts

salt & pepper

1 medium sweet potato

2 carrots

2tbs olive oil

salt & pepper

2 cloves garlic lightly crushed

1 small head broccoli

200g green beans

Instructions

Preheat oven to 180º C fan forced.

Chop carrots and sweet potato into 1.5cm cubes.  Place into a baking dish and coat with oil and salt & pepper.  Throw in the garlic cloves and bake in oven for 45-50mins.

Place salmon in a baking dish.  Mix oil, maple syrup, paprika, parsley, walnuts and salt and pepper in a bowl.  Press mix into top of salmon, coating evenly.  At 25mins into vegetables baking, place salmon into oven for 25mins.


Steam green beans for 10 minutes and broccoli for 6 minutes.

Serve is for 2.

*Note: Sweet potato is low GI and therefore a more sustainable carbohydrate to stabilise energy.  If you are having the evening before (long run) or immediately after a run, then you’re welcome to add a starchy, white potato for a more immediate carbohydrate.
